Oil bronze color is defectiveEven though I have always used Schlage products, this oil bronze colored handle is defective. The color is painted on and rubs off on your hand when you touch it. Had to return it.

Great ProductI needed to replace all the door knobs in my house. I went to my local big boxes and hardware stores, but I was going to have to spend almost $20.00 just to buy cheapy off brand knobs. I found these awesome quality knobs, for a third of the price of the store's. They arrived quickly and were package well, in their original packaging. Great product and site!

Very good serviceThe chrome door knobs that I was looking for were extremely limited in the home centers that I went to. I loved the great selection on HandleSets.com. I didn't request any special fast delivery service and they still made it to my house in four days. I was very satisfied with my selection when it arrived and it looks great on my bathroom door. I love the polished chrome on one side and brushed chrome on the other. I would highly recommend this site for their quality, good prices, selection and service.

Finish Care and
Cleaning of External Trim

Finishes: 505
(PVD Bright Brass), 605
(Bright Brass), 609 (Antique Brass), 619 (Satin Nickel), 620 (Antique
Pewter), 621 (Distressed Nickel), 622 (Matte Black), 716 (Aged Bronze)Care Guidelines:
Lacquered or
clear-coated finishes should be wiped with a soft, damp cloth. A mile
soap may be lightly used if very dirty. Particular care should be taken
to avoid paint smears, thinners and strong cleaning agents as they will
quickly destroy the protective coatings and subject the finished to
rapid oxidation and discoloration. Initial care for finishes requires
only periodic cleaning with mild non-abrasive soap and light buffing
with a soft cloth.

Finish: 613
(Oil Rubbed Bronze)Care Guidelines:
Wipe with a little
vegetable oil on a soft cloth. Too much oil may leave a residue to come
off on the hands. Household detergents and mild abrasive powder may be
used to restore the high metal color without seriously affecting the
original compound of the metal. Then rub with a paste wax.

Finishes: 625
(Bright Chrome), 626
(Satin Chrome)Care Guidelines:
Wipe with a soft
damp cloth. A high grade chrome polish may be used according to
directions to clean and restore the original shine or satin finish.
